Making a Straw Star Garland

This project is fun, inexpensive and very easy to do! You may also incorporate geometry by discussing symmetry, angles, shapes. This picture shows our garland through the window from the outside of our home.

1. Find or purchase straw. The straw should be not too dry and not too green. We ended up purchasing ours for $1.25/bundle at Steiner College Bookstore (Call them to order). We had 3 bundles it was more than enough.
